They have a lot of pros and cons. Lots of veggies and no sweets except a few fruits. Nuts and some dairy. You can have BACON! Protien is good, eggs are fine. Fats do help satisfy the appitite. I don't gain when I am doing it. I have huge problems over the holidays when every one is pushing bread, sweets and chips.
I have a friend who is vegan. No animal products period, she looks gaunt.
the congregation i belong to is small and most of its territory is in the rurals.
there is one territory in particular that is some distance from the hall and so it does not get worked as often as the closer ones.
then he said: "i cant talk to you people, you dont believe in hell" .
I like Frenchy's posts, just thought it is sad he isnt here any more. Thought I would share.
the legal challenge raised to the door to door work could be.
huge in its effects.
even if the supreme court strikes down.
So is the reason the Watchtower brought out the new carts?
got this off another message board.. "no jehovah's witnesses or burglars allowed.
occupant is armed and probably not passed out.

i'm married with small children.
my wife and i both born-in and baptized jws.
i began my slow drift about a year ago.
What a happy day for you! I second the other job idea. Get your networking skills going and maybe you can be competition for the boss in a few years time.
i truly don't feel like onthewayout anymore.
on jws or whichever board takes the .
lead, i am "jerry in chicago.
5 years later and 10thousand more posts.... we have a winner! Glad you are still around.
frowned upon is a lurking member here.
he never posts, but actively reads.
he went home yesterday to attend a family wedding.
It's a wedding so diverting attention to the "happy couple" would be good.
Ask lots of questions, try to see if you can find the next fader in the room. Ask about the missing friends and get the gossip. In general let them know if you are involved in a hobby you like or what issues intrest you lately. Like Jgnat said keep moving.
today i got into a discussion with our congregations biggest blood ban defenders, while sitting at the doctors office.
after lecturing me on not having a blood key chain, i mentioned about the flash of blood that happens when inserting an iv, that the blood was "transfused" back into the person.
she didn't believe me at first but the nurse confirmed the drops of blood.. this really upset her since she has been in the hospital quite a bit since aging.
I never knew the "official word" was this... I wonder if the elders do?
any opinions?.
do you expect it to change, to become more like the awake with one small bible-ish commentary!.
what is the point of a public watchtower anyways?
So it is 6 years later, does it seem that combining the two will happen??? Mind you I have only seen a pair of these leaflets once this year...at my JW sister's house.
over the years since i left jehovahs witnesses, one of the more fascinating things to observe, and really to me, the most important, is what to do after you leave.. to be sure, no one leaves because of a positive experience.
and therein lies the issues with leaving.
basically, people leave in three general ways: 1. they, like myself, resign or leave due to a disagreement.
Time to bump this amazing conversation!
